The Tabbernor Fault System (TFS) is a wide, >1500 km geophysical, topographic and geological structural zone that trends approximately northward along Saskatchewan's eastern boundary.

Key Points: 
  • The Tabbernor Fault System (TFS) is a wide, >1500 km geophysical, topographic and geological structural zone that trends approximately northward along Saskatchewan's eastern boundary.
  • Reactivation of the TFS may have coincided with the age of formation of large uranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin (Davies, 1998).
  • Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) actively operates an exploration pipeline of 12 advanced projects in Canada's Athabasca Basin, the world's richest uranium region.

Within Australia, the Northern Territory has some of the best-known and high-grade uranium deposits.

Key Points: 
  • Within Australia, the Northern Territory has some of the best-known and high-grade uranium deposits.
  • Moreover, the Northern Territory has a long history of allowing uranium mining, which commenced in 1953.\nContinuing due diligence has uncovered historical information that verifies the Artic Fox and Isbjorn properties are prospective for uranium mineralization.
  • Consequently, the Board was pleased to be advised of the uranium prospectivity within our two Northern Territory properties, as it clearly complements the REE potential.
  • Our Australian geology team will be focusing on identifying viable uranium and REE targets for closer scrutiny."\nMr.
